Application value of optical imaging as a potential biomarker for predicting postoperative recurrence of CRSwNP: eosinophil measurement and treatment of neuroinflammation.

Chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) has a relatively high recurrence rate, seriously affecting the quality of life of patients. Neuroinflammation interacts with the persistent inflammatory state of the nasal mucosa. This study aims to explore the application value of medical thermal imaging technology in predicting postoperative recurrence of nECRSwNP, and to evaluate potential biomarkers and efficacy assessment methods for neuroinflammation treatment, with the expectation of providing new strategies for reducing postoperative recurrence rates and improving the quality of life. Medical thermal imaging technology can monitor the temperature changes of nasal mucosa in real time and promptly detect alterations in inflammatory activity. The levels of EOS and cytokines in peripheral blood can serve as potential biomarkers for evaluating the status of neuroinflammation, which is helpful for identifying patients with a higher risk of recurrence, thereby enabling timely adjustment of treatment plans and improving the pertinence and effectiveness of neuroinflammation treatment.
